After Wang Lang's outstanding performance in the first quarter, he also returned to the bench to rest.

The Warriors and Clippers also sent their own bench lineups.

Sitting there, Wang Lang saw that the Clippers fans were still enthusiastic and cheering for the team.

The Warriors' bench lineup is center Aizeli, power forward Speights, small forward Iguodala, shooting guard Barbossa, and point guard Livingston.

For the Clippers, center Cole Aldridge, power forward Wesley Johnson, small forward Crawford, scoring guard Paul Pierce, and point guard Prigioni.

There is only one key player in this squad, Crawford.

In contrast, the Warriors' bench lineup is better.

Wang Lang also sat on the sidelines, cheering for the Warriors.

Iguodala's defense has been excellent, making Crawford's scoring efficiency drop quite a bit.

In addition to this, Crawford's physical exertion is also significant.

And the Warriors have no one on the Warriors team who can score consistently, except for Livingston.

In the first four minutes of the second quarter, both sides were in a war of attrition, and neither could gain the upper hand.

With eight minutes remaining, the Warriors were still leading by six points, 47-41.

The two sides also changed their main lineups.

This time, Kerr still let Wang Lang play and did not let him rest off the court.

Bogut was on the bench and did not get a chance to play.

Wang Lang was a little surprised, but he was also very happy.

He realized that this was Kerr's strategy, and found a way to open up the gap between the second and third quarters to seal the win, so that he didn't have to expend his energy in the fourth quarter.

However, against the Clippers' two big interior linemen, Jordan Jr. and Griffin, he will also face a lot of challenges.

The Warriors attacked, and Green dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Wang Lang blocked Curry, blocked Paul's footsteps, and let Curry receive the ball inside the three-point line.

Curry rushed straight to the basket and brought Griffin to the defense.

Curry also hit the ball and passed to Wang Lang, who ran to the bottom right corner.

Little Jordan defended this time and blocked in front of Wang Lang.

And Griffin returned to the basket and guarded the interior.

This is also a change in the strategy of the Clippers, with one of Jordan Jr. and Griffin always staying under the basket and switching defenses.

Facing Little Jordan, Wang Lang did not stop the ball, but directly dribbled to break through and rushed to the penalty area from the left side.

He was fast enough for Jordan Jr. to not keep up.

Wang Lang also rushed to the basket.

Griffin immediately stood outside the box and wanted to defend.

But Wang Lang did not continue to move forward, but stopped and shot on the board.

This time, he was shooting from mid-range.

Griffin also jumped over and blocked it.

But Wang Lang's shot angle was tricky, avoiding Griffin's defense.

The ball hits the rebound and bounces into the basket.

Wang Lang scored 14 points, and the Warriors led by eight points at 49-41.

Griffin frowned, disappointed that his defense didn't work.

But Wang Lang was extremely happy and bumped shoulders with Curry, who passed the ball, in celebration.

A Smith in the live broadcast room laughed: "Griffin's bounce is really amazing, but the arms are a little too short to interfere with the attack." Wang Lang's shooting is also getting stronger and stronger, originally only shooting from close range, but now he can hit from mid-range.

O'Neal shook his head: "Even if Griffin's arm is long enough, it's useless, Wang Lang's shooting skills are very good, he can avoid the defense and find the angle to score." The only problem is just the feel of his hand.

A Smith nodded: "That means, Wang Lang is going to blow up Griffin in this game?"

O'Neal smiled: "If the Clippers still use Griffin to defend, it must be so, Jordan Jr. can't keep up with Wang Lang's speed, Griffin can keep up but can't stop it, and the Clippers' two interior lines are like two stakes."

A Smith clapped his hands: "Then look forward to Wang Lang's excellent performance in this game!"

The Clippers attacked, and Paul took the ball to the frontcourt.

Griffin came over to block the pick-and-roll.

Paul sped up and rushed inside.

Green stepped in to stop Paul from moving on.

And Paul handed it over to Griffin.

Griffin receives the ball and takes a shot near the box and shoots from close range.

Green's defense was a little slower, couldn't defend and was shot in by Griffin.

The Warriors are 49-43 with a six-point lead.

Wang Lang saw Griffin's precise close-up feel and knew that Griffin was in good shape now.

In the following round, the two sides carried out their own tactical strategies.

Wang Lang has been using his three-point shooting ability to attract the defense and keep Jordan Jr. away from the restricted area.

And he also used the ball again and again to break through Jordan Jr.'s defense, hit the three-point line, and hit a mid-range shot with Griffin's supplemental defense.

And once Griffin and Jordan Jr. form a back-and-forth strike, he passes the ball directly behind his back and hands it to Green or Barnes to make them both score layups.

Griffin also kept receiving passes from Paul and shot from either side of the box.

The two began a battle of inside scores.

But Wang Lang's shooting was obviously better, shooting 6 of 6 and scoring 12 points.

He also grabbed six assists and five rebounds.

Combined with the previous rebounds and assists, he had an all-round performance of 26 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists in the first half.

Griffin was a little worse by comparison, scoring 10 points on 5-of-8 shooting.

Bamot also found a three-pointer under Paul's pass, hitting two 3-pointers and scoring six points.

By the end of the second quarter, the Warriors were 73-59 with a 14-point lead.

This margin of scoring also gave the Warriors more of a chance to win in the third quarter.

A Smith in the live broadcast room was already shouting: "Friends, 26 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, and it's only the first half, what kind of outstanding performance is this?

O'Neal smiled: "Even in the face of the Clippers team with strong interior defense, Wang Lang can still use the mid-range shooting to score, and the shooting rate is extremely high, which is enough to show that he is a super center and has the strength to dominate the interior."

A Smith asked: "I just saw the bag of Jordan Jr. and Griffin, but their bag was easily cracked by Wang Lang with a pass from behind, if this continues, the difference between the two sides will get bigger and bigger." Is there anything else the Clippers can do?"

O'Neal shook his head: "There's no way, they can't let go of Curry and Thompson's defense, and they don't have more manpower to complete the defense with these two people in the face of these two."

"What's more, there's nothing wrong with Griffin's defense, he just can't defend it.

A-Smith asked, "How many points will Wang Lang end up scoring in this game?40 points?"

O'Neal held his cheek with one hand: "Likely, if he scores a lot, I'm not surprised, Griffin's defense is obviously in trouble, maybe they should choose another defensive style."

A Smith laughed: "Is there any other way?"

O'Neal shook his head: "I shouldn't worry about this matter, let's leave it to the coach of the Clippers." "
